Thanks Freddy and Jeff! Yeah 1200 was way too much on the other one, I am new to slots but I do know antiques and values of most things especially if they are not in great condition.
I am undecided now on whether or not to put the cast Indian Head over the original decal now as 2 holes would have to be drilled to install it. I am hard headed when it comes to keeping things all original and not doing to much to something if anything at all if its not original to the piece or an original part on the cabinet. I would have less a problem putting one on it if it was an original Indian Head but I would guess those are difficult to come by. I am going to replace the 2 stars that were there when I get them and will post pics. I never plan to sell it so I guess it does not matter if the Indian Head is put on it.
While I am thinking about it, any recommendations on what type oil and grease should I use on the mech inside? I think mine could use some grease on a couple of things inside but have no idea what to get that is best for slots. Sorry for all the questions I just don't want to make a mistake and have lots to learn about these great machines. Thanks.
